With your changes, these functions cannot be called with p->iotype != UPIO_AU anymore, correct? So there is no need for this test...


I think you are probably correct. However, with the patch it is possible to move all this target specific code out of the driver. So if the patch is accepted, a better follow up would be to get rid of the UPIO_AU things altogether.

I gave an example of how that could be done with UPIO_TSI here:
